UPCOMING EXHIBITION
Opulent Mobility: Re-Imagine Disability and Mobility
In Collaboration with the Students of Glendale Unified School District
April 26 - June 21, 2025​
Opulent Mobility, curated by founder A. Laura Brody and Anthony Tusler, tells stories that humanize, uplift, and celebrate disabled artists and disability art.
​
It is more crucial than ever to share art and stories that offer an opportunity for others to understand and appreciate disability culture and the challenges that disabled populations face. The exhibition is meant to share these artworks, support the disability community, and educate and illuminate non-disabled audiences. Opulent Mobility will partner with seniors at Glendale Unified School District (GUSD) to present works addressing the themes present in Opulent Mobility.. [CC1]

CALL FOR ENTRIES
Brand 53: Annual National Juried Exhibition of Works on Paper
Call for Entries Opens: March 31, 2025

Cash awards total more than $4,000, including a Juror’s Award. All accepted artworks will be included in a show at Brand Library’s Gallery and in both printed and online exhibition catalogs.

​
This year’s juror, Sigrid Burton, considers color and drawing as the foundation of her artistic practice and is noted for her works in oil on canvas or linen and mixed media on paper. She explores the natural world both literally and figuratively, with the intention of making light and depth tangible and visible on a two-dimensional picture plane. Burton captures the phenomenological occurrence of reflection and refraction of light, in particular, water, sky and deep space. Her studies of the art of the Indian subcontinent and its ancient and sophisticated aesthetic theory have influenced her thinking that the importance of a work of art is the response that the work evokes from the viewer. Within this context, color is understood to have great expressive and communicative power.
​
Information on the application process and requirements can be found on the CaFE Call for Entries form. The exhibition will open on July 19, 2025.
